This is my favorite donut shop in Oregon (and I've been to a lot). The donuts are fresh and remind…read moreme of the old fashioned donut shops. The building is old but they do a great job keeping it clean. There is a table full of beautiful plants to check out while you're waiting in line. We came in once right after an older gentleman accidentally ran into the building and injured someone. The staff were amazing and making sure he was ok, the building was safe and everyone got their donuts.

All vegans must stop at this place--it's an absolute game changer! When I tell you that these…read moredoughnuts are the best, you'd better believe it. They're super spongy, soft, and incredibly tasty. Honestly, I can't tell the difference between a regular doughnut and a vegan one from here. That's how good they are. I find myself eating one almost daily when I'm in town--they're that irresistible! The texture is spot on, and the flavors are always on point. Whether you're vegan or not, these doughnuts are a treat anyone can enjoy. A little tip: You can also find these doughnuts at the Market of Choice, but they usually sell out by lunchtime, especially on Sundays, so get there early if you want to grab some! Keep up the awesome work, Dough Nut --your doughnuts are pure magic!

Easy parking. Super friendly guys working there. Lots of gluten free donuts left at 10:30 although…read morethey said the rate they sell varies. The chocolate gluten free donut was very tasty and had a nice texture for a cake donut. It was basically a cupcake with a hole in the middle. My kids got regular maple donuts and enjoyed the flavor of the icing and the texture of the donut.

From the outside, this coffee shop looks quaint, but the inside buzzes with energy and the smell of…read morefresh espresso. It's very conveniently located within walking distance to the rest of downtown Bend. It can get pretty packed, and seating isn't always guaranteed, but if you have time to hang around, the atmosphere is well worth experiencing. There's a bar-style seating area where locals seemed genuinely settled in, giving the shop a true neighborhood feel. I ordered a large Belgian Mocha, which was rich in flavor while not being overly sweet. The espresso was definitely still there, so the drink was beyond just a dessert vibe. Service was friendly and efficient, with my drink ready in just a few minutes despite the crowd. Overall, this is a lively downtown coffee spot best suited for those who want quality drinks and don't mind a local crowd.

Additionally, our barista gave us a coupon for a free 12oz drink because it took more than five minutes for us to get the breakfast sandwich, it didn't seem like a long time to me but that is just good service. The music was tasteful and not too loud which helped cultivate the calm and pleasant ambiance. The pastries were delightful, so good in fact that I was unable to get a photo due to my inability to delay taking a bite as soon as we sat down. We had the ham and gruyère croissant and the plain croissant. The breakfast sandwich was great; the homemade English muffins were dense but not heavy, the bacon was perfectly thick and crispy, the egg was well done, and the pesto mayo tied it all together. The Latte was solid, I regret not trying the syrups which I found out were homemade after I had ordered, it seemed as though everyone who ordered after me got the cardamom syrup in their drinks. My girlfriend got the hemp milk latte, unsweetened. She is a matcha snob and was pleased with her order, which is a rarity for coffee forward places such as Thump. Stop at Thump if you're in Bend.

sparrow bakery in bend is operating at a level that doesn't fully make sense…read more this is S tier. not "good bakery" not "great local spot." this is top of the system everyone talks about the ocean roll and yeah... correct. cardamom, sugar, whatever else is happening in there--it works. you take a bite and immediately understand why people bring it up like it's a shared reference point but the real thing is everything else all the small moves. the way the line flows. the timing. how orders land. how people are acknowledged without slowing anything down. it's a bunch of tiny decisions stacked perfectly and no one even notices because it feels natural morning crowd is serious. you'll see deals happening. laptops open but not in an annoying way. people choosing this place on purpose and it's busy. consistently. like if you're trying to figure out if something is good just look at the door situation. it tells you everything honestly the only concern is the pricing feels too reasonable for what they're doing. like i almost want to step in and say guys you might be underestimating yourselves but maybe that's part of it elite spot. bend is lucky this exists

If you're going into one of their shops, you'll appreciate the modern, clean interior and friendly, over-the-counter service. Truth...

Service was a little slow and cocktails were super slow to arrive. We ordered a lot of side dishes and some oysters. Side dishes were very tasty, i.e. carrots, brussel sprouts, caesar salad, pureed potatoes. Oysters were extremely small - about the size of a nickel. I ordered a rib eye steak and about one-third of it was not chewable and pushed to the side. What was edible was very well seasoned and good. Was it worth $65? Nope, not even. The desserts were fantastic. Overall, it was a nice experience, but not a "do again".
